Jeremiah 31
1 At the same time, says the LORD, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.
“Yeroo sanatti” jedha Waaqayyo, “Ani balbala Israaʼel hundaaf Waaqa nan taʼa; isaanis saba koo ni taʼu.”
2 Thus says the LORD, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Namoonni goraadee irraa hafan gammoojjii keessatti fudhatama ni argatu; anis Israaʼeliif boqonnaa kennuuf nan dhufa.”
3 The LORD has appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved you with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn you.
Waaqayyo fagoodhaa natti mulʼatee akkana jedhe: “Ani jaalala bara baraatiin si jaalladheera; kanaafuu ani arjummaa kootiin ofitti si harkiseera.
4 Again I will build you, and you shall be built, O virgin of Israel: you shall again be adorned with your timbrels, and shall go forth in the dances of them that make merry.
Yaa Israaʼel durba qulqullittii, ani amma illee sin ijaara; atis deebitee ni ijaaramta. Ati amma illee dibbee kee fudhattee warra gammadan wajjin shuubbisuuf gad baata.
5 You shall yet plant vines upon the mountains of Samaria: the planters shall plant, and shall eat them as common things.
Ati amma illee gaarran Samaariyaa irratti wayinii ni dhaabbatta; qotee bulaanis wayinii dhaabbatee ija isaa ni nyaata.
6 For there shall be a day, that the watchmen upon the mount Ephraim shall cry, Arise all of you, and let us go up to Zion unto the LORD our God.
Guyyaa itti eegdonni gaarran Efreem irra dhaabatanii, ‘Kottaa gara Xiyoonitti, gara Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaatti ol baanaa’ jedhanii iyyan tokko ni dhufa.”
7 For thus says the LORD; Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout among the chief of the nations: publish all of you, praise all of you, and say, O LORD, save your people, the remnant of Israel.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Yaaqoobiif gammachuudhaan faarfadhaa; hangafa sabootaatiif ililchaa. Galata keessan dhageessisaatii, ‘Yaa Waaqayyo saba kee, hambaa Israaʼel baraari’ jedhaa.
8 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that labors with child together: a great company shall return thither.
Kunoo, ani biyya kaabaatii isaan nan fida; handaara lafaatiis walitti isaan nan qaba. Isaan keessattis jaamotaa fi naafota, haadhota ulfaatii fi dubartoota ciniinsifatantu argama; saba guddaa taʼaniis ni deebiʼu.
9 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.
Isaanis booʼaa dhufu; yeroo ani deebisee isaan fidutti Waaqa kadhatu. Waan ani abbaa Israaʼel taʼee fi Efreem immoo ilma koo hangafa taʼeef, ani qarqara burqaa bishaanii irra, daandii qajeelaa isaan achi irratti hin gufanne irra isaan nan qajeelcha.
10 Hear the word of the LORD, O all of you nations, and declare it in the isles far off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd does his flock.
“Yaa saboota, dubbii Waaqayyo dhagaʼaa; isin, ‘Inni Israaʼelin bittinneesse sun walitti isaan qabee akkuma tiksee tokkootti bushaayee isaa ni tiksa’ jedhaatii biyyoota qarqara galaanaa kanneen fagoo jiranitti labsaa.
11 For the LORD has redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he.
Waaqayyo Yaaqoobin fureera, warra isa caalaa jajjaboo taʼan harkaas isa baaseeraatii.
12 Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the LORD, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.
Isaan ni dhufanii gaarran Xiyoon irrattis gammadanii ililchu; isaan arjummaa Waaqayyootti jechuunis midhaanitti, daadhii wayinii haaraa fi zayitiitti, ilmoolee bushaayeettii fi jabbootaattis ni gammadu. Jireenyi isaanii akkuma biqiltuu bishaan quufee taʼa; isaan siʼachi hin gaddan.
13 Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.
Ergasiis shamarran ni shuubbisu; ni gammadu; dargaggoonnii fi maanguddoonni akkasuma ni gammadu. Ani booʼicha isaanii gammachuutti nan geeddara; qooda gaddaa jajjabinaa fi gammachuu nan kennaaf.
14 And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, says the LORD.
Ani arjummaadhaan luboota nan quubsa; sabni koos badhaadhummaa kootiin ni guutama,” jedha Waaqayyo.
15 Thus says the LORD; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Sagaleen booʼichaatii fi wawwaannaa guddaan tokko Raamaa keessaa dhagaʼame; sababii isaan hin jirreef, Raahel ijoollee isheetiif booʼaa jirti; jajjabaachuus ni didde.”
16 Thus says the LORD; Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears: for your work shall be rewarded, says the LORD; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Sagalee kee booʼicha irraa, ija kee immoo imimmaan irraa eeggadhu; hojiin kee ni badhaafamaatii” jedha Waaqayyo. “Isaan biyya diinaatii ni deebiʼu.
17 And there is hope in your end, says the LORD, that your children shall come again to their own border.
Kanaafuu galgalli kee abdii qaba” jedha Waaqayyo. Ijoolleen kee biyya ofii isaaniitti ni deebiʼu.
18 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock is not accustomed to the yoke: turn you me, and I shall be turned; for you are the LORD my God.
“Ani dhugumaan Efreemii akkana jedhee booʼu dhagaʼeera: ‘Ati akkuma dibicha hin leenjifamin tokkootti na adabdeerta; anis adabameera. Ati sababii Waaqayyo Waaqa koo taateef, na deebisi; anis nan deebiʼa.
19 Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I stroke upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.
Ani ergan duubatti deebiʼee booddee, qalbii jijjiirradheera; ani ergan hubadhee booddee, qoma koo nan dhaʼe. Ani sababiin salphina dargaggummaa koo baadhuuf, nan qaanaʼe; gad nan deebiʼes.’
20 Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a pleasant child? for since I spoke against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, says the LORD.
Efreem ilma koo jaallatamaa, mucaa ani itti gammadu mitii? Ani yeroo baayʼee yoon isaan morme iyyuu amma illee isa nan yaadadha. Kanaafuu garaan koo isaaf ni yaada; garaas nan laafaaf” jedha Waaqayyo.
21 Set you up guideposts, make you high heaps: set your heart toward the highway, even the way which you went: return, O virgin of Israel, return to these your cities.
“Ati mallattoo daandii dhaabbadhu; waan karaa nama argisiisu illee kaaʼadhu. Karaa irra deemtu, daandii guddaa sana hubadhu. Yaa Israaʼel durba qulqullittii deebiʼi; magaalaawwan keetti deebiʼi.
22 How long will you go about, O you backsliding daughter? for the LORD has created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall compass a man.
Yaa intala hin amanamne, ati hamma yoomiitti asii fi achi joorta? Waaqayyo waan haaraa tokko lafa irratti ni uuma; dubartiin dhiira marsiti.”
23 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As yet they shall use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity; The LORD bless you, O habitation of justice, and mountain of holiness.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: “Yeroo ani boojiʼamtoota isaanii deebisutti namoonni biyya Yihuudaatii fi magaalaawwan ishee keessa jiraatan amma illee yeroo tokko, ‘Yaa iddoo murtiin qajeelaan jiraatu, yaa tulluu qulqulluu, Waaqayyo si haa eebbisu’ jedhanii dubbatu.
24 And there shall dwell in Judah itself, and in all the cities thereof together, husbandmen, and they that go forth with flocks.
Biyya Yihuudaatii fi magaalaawwan isaa hunda keessa namoonni jechuunis qonnaan bultoonnii fi warri bushaayee fudhatanii asii fi achi nanaannaʼan tokkummaadhaan achi keessa jiraatu.
25 For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.
Ani warra dadhaban nan jajjabeessa; warra gaggaban illee nan bayyanachiisa.”
26 Upon this I awaked, and beheld; and my sleep was sweet unto me.
Kana irratti ani dammaqee asii fi achi nan ilaale. Hirribni koos natti miʼaawee ture.
27 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man, and with the seed of beast.
“Barri ani itti mana Israaʼelii fi mana Yihuudaa sanyii namaatii fi sanyii horiitiin guutu tokko ni dhufa” jedha Waaqayyo.
28 And it shall come to pass, that like I have watched over them, to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and to destroy, and to afflict; so will I watch over them, to build, and to plant, says the LORD.
“Ani akkuman isaan buqqisuu fi diiguuf, isaan garagalchuuf, isaan barbadeessuu fi badiisa isaanitti fiduuf isaan ilaale sana akkasuma immoo isaan ijaaruu fi isaan dhaabuuf gara isaanii nan ilaala” jedha Waaqayyo.
29 In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge.
“Bara sana keessa namoonni lammata, “‘Abbootiin isaanii ija wayinii dhangaggaaʼaa nyaannaan ilkaan ijoollee hadoode’ hin jedhan.
30 But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eats the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.
Qooda kanaa tokkoon tokkoon namaa cubbuu ofii isaatiin duʼa; nama ija wayinii dhangaggaaʼaa nyaatu kam iyyuu ilkaanuma isaatu hadooda.
31 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
“Yeroon ani itti mana Israaʼel wajjin, mana Yihuudaa wajjinis kakuu haaraa galu ni dhufa,” jedha Waaqayyo.
32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, says the LORD:
“Kakuun kunis kakuu ani, yeroo biyya Gibxiitii isaan baasuuf jedhee harka isaanii qabe sana abbootii isaanii wajjin gale, kakuu koo kan utuma ani dhirsa isaanii taʼee jiruu isaan cabsan sanaan tokko miti” jedha Waaqayyo.
33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, says the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
“Kakuun ani yeroo sana booddee mana Israaʼel wajjin galu kanaa dha” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani seera koo qalbii isaanii keessa nan kaaʼa; garaa isaanii keessattis nan barreessa. Ani Waaqa isaanii nan taʼa; isaanis saba koo taʼu.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, says the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Sababii hundi isaanii, xinnaa hamma guddaatti na beekaniif, siʼachi namni kam iyyuu, ‘Waaqayyoon beeki’ jedhee ollaa isaa yookaan obboleessa isaa hin barsiisu” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani yakka isaanii nan dhiisaaf; cubbuu isaaniis siʼachi hin yaadadhu.”
35 Thus says the LORD, which gives the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divides the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name:
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; inni akka isheen guyyaan ibsituuf aduu ramadu, inni akka isaan halkaniin ibsaniif, jiʼaa fi urjiiwwan ajaju, inni akka dambaliin isaa huursuuf galaana raasu sun maqaan isaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu dha:
36 If those ordinances depart from before me, says the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.
“Yoo seerri kun fuula koo duraa bade qofa, sanyiin Israaʼel, fuula koo duratti bara baraan saba taʼuun isaa hafa” jedha Waaqayyo.
37 Thus says the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, says the LORD.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Yoo samiin gubbaa safaramuu dandaʼee fi hundeen lafaa kan gadii qoratamee argamuu dandaʼe qofa ani sanyii Israaʼel hunda sababii waan isaan hojjetan hundaatiif nan gata” jedha Waaqayyo.
38 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that the city shall be built to the LORD from the tower of Hananeel unto the gate of the corner.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Barri itti magaalaan kun gamoo Hanaaniʼeeliitii jalqabee hamma Karra Goleetti deebiʼee naaf ijaaramu tokko ni dhufa.
39 And the measuring line shall yet go forth opposite to it upon the hill Gareb, and shall compass about to Goath.
Funyoon safaraas achii kaʼee gara tulluu Gaareebitti qajeelee gara Goʼaatti diriirfama.
40 And the whole valley of the dead bodies, and of the ashes, and all the fields unto the brook of Kidron, unto the corner of the horse gate toward the east, shall be holy unto the LORD; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more for ever.
Sululli reeffii fi daaraan itti gatamu guutuun, karaa baʼaas sulula Qeedroon qabatee dirreen hamma Karra Fardaatti jiru hundi Waaqayyoof ni qulqulleeffama. Magaalaan kun gonkumaa lammaffaa hin buqqifamtu yookaan hin diigamtu.”
